The weather was beautiful and they had a great time. By 8:30 Sunday morning, hot cakes (made by Graeme Craig who used his secret recipe) were being flipped by the very capable flipper, Howard Hackwell. Sausages were sizzling away with Audrey Hackwell watching over them; toast was popping up and being buttered by Heidi McClure; Leona McDonald took care of the eggs and Jo Ann McDonald was in charge of everything else. Those are the ingredients for making a fine breakfast and the fifty people that come out cat agreed. Lee Ann McDonald and Stacey Linton were greeters at Duff's United Church on Feb. 26. With the delicious smells of breakfast filling the sanctuary Andrew McDonald started the worship service off by lighting the Christ Candle. Rev. Banks announced the next Sunday begins the first Sunday of Lent. Once again a Lenten fund raiser will begin, starting with collecting two cents for each time you turn on the water in a week.

Randy Banks talked with the young children about the Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea in which both cases the Jordan River feeds them. He asked for a volunteer to taste one of the glasses of water that•he had. It turned out to be just ordinary water. The other glass Melissa Badly found to be filled with salt water. Rev. explained that the Dead Sea contains salt water and the Sea of Galilee is fresh water. He asked how could the same river that runs into both seas be so different? He said the differ- ence is that the river doesn't run in and out of both. It stays in the Dead Sea, becoming stagnate, absorbing salt from the land where it sets. But in the other sea the water flows in and out again. He said that there was a parable here. The one sea receives the water from the Jordan and gives it back in a river that keeps on flowing. The other sea takes the water in but gives nothing in return. We can choose to be like on of the seas. The one who receives and gives is alive. The one who receives but does not give back will become stagnant and still and of no use to anyone. Our challenge is to be like the Sea of Galilee and to receive life but to give it back in return so that God's love can flow through us.
